Well, here is this:
[-P-] [ ] sys-apps/portage-2.1.11.63:0
[-P-] [ ] sys-apps/portage-2.2.0_alpha173:0
[IP-] [ ] sys-apps/portage-2.2.0_alpha174:0
This is the portage update info. I use genlop -t to do this. I know
there is a better way but can't remember the command. lol I think it
was one of the q thingys.

Based on that, I would say it started about the time *173 hit. I can't
go back to the *171 since it is no longer in the tree.
I'm not sure I know enough about debugging to help much but it sure is
weird. Should have known something weird like this would hit me. :/
I'm sort of pretty active on this thing right now since I do some
volunteer mod work on a site. I'd rather not get myself to a spot where
my rig aini't working. I'm not even doing upgrades like I used to.
Well, not as often anyway. I just have to plan stuff to make sure I'm
up and running.
I checked for roach reports and didn't see this reported anywhere. I
wonder if a USE flag is triggering this? This is interesting:
root@fireball / # emerge -pv =sys-devel/gcc-4.4.7 =sys-devel/gcc-4.5.4
=sys-devel/gcc-4.6.3
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

sys-devel/gcc:4.6
(sys-devel/gcc-4.6.3::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
(no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot)
(sys-devel/gcc-4.6.3::gentoo, installed) pulled in by

!!! Enabling --newuse and --update might solve this conflict.
!!! If not, it might help emerge to give a more specific suggestion.
root@fireball / #
I may need to make sense of this now. May not be the problem but
still. I don't have anything related to gcc in package.use either. I'm
not sure about the USE flag being changed on two but not the other.
When I logoff as mod, I'm going to try to recompile that older version.
Thoughts? Could that be the cause?
